"Your heart must not be troubled.^(a) Believe^[a] in God;^(b) believe also in Me.

In My Father's house are many dwelling places;^[b] if not, I would have told you. I am going away^(c) to prepare a place for you.

If I go away and prepare a place for you, I will come back^(d) and receive you to Myself, so that where I am you may be also.^(e)

You know the way to where I am going." ^[c](f)

"Lord," Thomas^(g) said, "we don't know where You're going. How can we know the way?"

Jesus told him, "I am^(h) the way,⁽ⁱ⁾ the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

"If you know Me, you will also know^[d] My Father.^(j) From now on you do know Him^(k) and have seen Him."

"Lord," said Philip,^(l) "show us the Father, and that's enough for us."

Jesus said to him, "Have I been among you all this time without your knowing Me, Philip? The one who has seen Me has seen the Father.^(m) How can you say, ‘Show us the Father'?

Don't you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me?⁽ⁿ⁾ The words I speak to you I do not speak on My own.^(o) The Father who lives in Me does His works.^(p)

Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me. Otherwise, believe^[e] because of the works themselves. ^(q)

"I assure you: The one who believes in Me^(r) will also do the works that I do. And he will do even greater works than these,^(s) because I am going to the Father.^(t)

Whatever you ask in My name, I will do it so that the Father may be glorified^(u) in the Son.^(v)

If you ask Me^[f] anything in My name,^(w) I will do it. ^[g](x)

"If you love Me, you will keep^[h] My commands. ^(y)

And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Counselor^(z) to be with you forever.

He is the Spirit^(aa) of truth.^(ab) The world is unable to receive Him because it doesn't see Him or know Him. But you do know Him, because He remains with you and will be^[i] in you.^(ac)

I will not leave you as orphans; I am coming to you.

"In a little while the world will see Me no longer,^(ad) but you will see Me.^(ae) Because I live, you will live^(af) too.

In that day you will know that I am in My Father,^(ag) you are in Me, and I am in you.

The one who has My commands and keeps them is the one who loves Me.^(ah) And the one who loves Me will be loved by My Father.^(ai) I also will love him and will reveal Myself to him."

Judas^(aj) (not Iscariot) said to Him, "Lord, how is it You're going to reveal Yourself to us and not to the world?"^(ak)

Jesus answered, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word. My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.^(al)

The one who doesn't love Me will not keep My words. The word that you hear is not Mine but is from the Father who sent Me. ^(am)

"I have spoken these things to you while I remain with you.

But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit^(an)—the Father will send^(ao) Him in My name—will teach you all things^(ap) and remind you of everything I have told you. ^(aq)

"Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Your heart must not be troubled or fearful.^(ar)

You have heard Me tell you, ‘I am going away^(as) and I am coming to you.' If you loved Me, you would have rejoiced that I am going to the Father,^(at) because the Father is greater than I.^(au)

I have told you now before it happens^(av) so that when it does happen you may believe.

I will not talk with you much longer, because the ruler of the world^(aw) is coming. He has no power over Me. ^[j](ax)

On the contrary, I am going away^[k] so that the world may know that I love the Father. Just as the Father commanded Me, so I do. "Get up; let's leave this place.
